Personally I feel The Dark Knight is the best. It's the perfect Batman movie in my opinion, as it has a great cast from a strong lead actor to dangerously awesome villain, to a dazzling supporting cast. The plot itself is as much sinister as it is amazing, bringing some of the best things of the Batman mythos to a live-action film, from suspense, to drama, to action and amazing special effects. Capturing the dark life Bruce Wayne lives everyday as the Batman, while also giving us a glimpse into the eyes of pure evil through the Joker. Added with the cool gadgets, chase and fight scenes, and fantastic journey into the hearts of the people of Gotham, whether it through Commissioner Gordon's struggle to keep order in his city, to Harvey Dent's war to bring justice to the once great metropolis, to even the comical, yet inspiring, words of Alfred. The movie has everything a Batman fan could ask for.

The Dark Knight Rises -Despite all the plot holes, I enjoyed it due to its massive scope and great action. Critics would burn me but the story is great in my books.

The Dark Knight - All about Joker. Take him out and the movie would be half-good IMO. Still great though.

Batman Begins - Still good but I felt it was too slow at the start. Against popular taste, though, I preferred the fights in Begins over the (seemingly) slower fights of the succeeding films. Close shots are good for me cause I feel the ambiguity of Batman's moves.

Dark Knight had the most stand out performances, a solid story that really pushed the characters the the very edge and beyond. Batman Begins revitalised the concept and did some revolutionary things in comic book film making. I'm not a massive fan of The Dark Knight Rises, it was indeed a spectacle and an enjoyable watch but it seemed to rely on old ideas more than attempting to do anything as fresh as the previous two. The script had problems, I found the gradual castration of Bane to be one of the biggest flaws and the addition of Miranda Tate to be utterly redundant, as well as the criminal under use of Michael Cain and especially Gary Oldman.

1. The Dark Knight, Reasons: Heath Ledger's Joker was flawless, Aaron Eckhart as Two Face was also top notch, great plot, perfect ending, fantastic movie. 2. The Dark Knight Rises, Reasons: Bane..seriously...Bane, her portrayal of Selina Kyle made me like Anne Hathaway, I loved the allusions to No Man's Land, ending nearly made me shed a tear. 3. Batman Begins, Reasons: Although it still is a very good movie, it didn't really compare to the epicness of the other two, and Ra's Al Ghul wasn't as interesting as Bane or Joker

Originally my favourite was The Dark Knight, however after watching Batman Begins again it's hard to say. For now I'd say probably Batman Begins, I loved the training scenes and all the dialogue with Ra's Al Ghul. I've yet to see The Dark Knight Rises but I've heard mixed reviews from it.

I thought The Dark Knight Rises was a bit disappointing, which is why I put it in third. It was a good film but I had a few problems with it, Batman Begins was my favourite because I loved the origin story as well as the villains involved.

Well I never got to see the entire Batman Begins movie because it bored me for some reason. Plus I think I wanted to watch something else on another channel... As for the other two, I am going with TDKR because I enjoyed it somewhat more for some reason. No idea really why though.

I loved all of them, but TDK was easily the best to me, and TDKR had some pretty weak plot points.

Also, I don't get why people say "TDK wouldn't be good without the Joker." Ya, because the Joker's schemes are basically the plot of the movie? That's like saying "The movie wouldn't be as good if it didn't have a plot."

I just dont understand why people even mention omitting the Joker from the film,as if he was some separate entity forced in to the film to make it better.

I love Begins the most. Ra's al Ghul is my 2nd favorite Batman villain, and my favorite Batman villain to appear onscreen. I loved seeing Bruce's transformation from man to Batman especially the following line that Ra's gives him: "But if you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely... A legend, Mr. Wayne". I also like that while this movie had Nolan's realistic vibe going for it, it still managed to capture Batman's comic book style, at least it did to me.
